We’re looking for nominations for ‘Poconos 20 Under 40’

We are putting together a special feature for “Poconos 20 Under 40” and we are looking for your help.

We are looking for young Poconos leaders who are dynamic, dedicated individuals making a difference in the Poconos socially, politically, professionally, culturally or through their contributions to their community.

First and foremost, these people are leaders. They don’t have to make a $1 million a year. They don’t have to be the heads of major companies. What we’re looking for is people making a positive change, who have an established history of taking steps to move forward in life ahead of where some of their peers may be. They also have an eye on moving the Poconos forward as well.

The nominees must be between the ages of 18 and 40 as of May 1, 2013, and must be a current, permanent resident of Monroe or Pike County. College students who attend school outside the area but who live in the Poconos full-time are eligible.

If the nominee doesn’t live in Monroe or Pike County, that person must currently work there and have a demonstrated track record of advancing the community.
